TexLaMex, November 2006, Page 7 Flat Stanley goes to Rome!!
|
Each year at Dolores the parish staff along with people from the provincial house get together for a turkey dinner before Thanksgiving. It is a way for us to be together. This year it was a bit more important to get together early because John Korcsmar will be going to Rome for the Council of the Congregation and for the Extraordinary General Chapter. He will be in Rome on Thanksgiving Day. Perhaps they will all be served turkey tetrizini!! Do they even eat such a thing in Italy?? |

Sr. Rose cooked the turkey, Sr. Carlota cooked her Louisiana green beans, Sr. Olivia baked her special pecan and her wonderful pumpkin pies. Sr. Lili brought the rolls for the dinner. John brought his appetite. |
Sr. Carlota holds Agustin Skeith. He appears to be fascinated with her congregational insignia. | |

| John is always learning new skills. Here he is learning how to cut the pumpkin pie. It might be easier if he just would take the whole thing. | Brother Thomas takes Agustin for a while. | |

| It looks as though people came from Mexico for this!! Far right: Fr. Pete Logsdon, Pastor of La Luz Parish in Monterrey, MX. Sr. Adelaide Cannon is on the far left, and the candidates Nohemi and Paty are in the middle--they are from Monterrey. | It looks as though Brother Thomas has found his friend, Margarita. She is a salty lass. | |
